planted at a minimum of one deciduous or coniferous tree per 40 linear feet along the property <br />line. <br />Figure A: Example cross-section view of perimeter parking lot landscape screening. <br />Figure B: Example elevation view of perimeter parking lot landscape screening. <br />6.Screening. Screening shall be used to provide visual and noise separation of more intensive uses from less <br />intensive uses. Where screening is required in the city Code between uses or districts, it shall consist of <br />either a masonry wall or fence, or berm in combination with landscape material that forms a screen at least <br />six feet in height, and not less than 90 percent opaque on a year-round basis. Top of wall or fence shall be <br />a minimum of six feet above the elevation along the property line(s) from which screening of the less <br />intensive use is required. The City may require screening at least eight feet in height were the difference <br />in intensity of uses is greater, such as between lots planned for development with single-family attached <br />and detached residential development and certain service uses such as self-service storage and trade shops, <br />automotive/vehicular uses, or industrial and extractive uses. Landscape material shall include trees, <br />planted at a minimum of one deciduous or coniferous tree per 25 40 linear feet along the property line. <br />Screening trees shall be adequately sized and offset from the property line so as not to overhang adjacent <br />properties upon reaching mature size. Additional landscape material, such as shade trees or trellises, may <br />be required to partially screen views from above.
